Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Technical measures and the application of suitable work processes have priority over personal protection equipment.
The quality of the protective clothing resistant to chemicals must be chosen as a function of the specific working place
concentration and quantity of hazardous substances.
For special purposes, it is recommended to check the resistance of the protective clothing to chemicals together with
the supplier.
Professional association’s rules should be respected.
Eye / face protection Suitable eye protection: Eye glasses with side protection
DIN-/EN-Norms: DIN EN 166
Hand protection Suitable gloves type: Gloves with long cuffs

Suitable material: NBR (Nitrile rubber), Neopren or Viton; Permeation level 5-6 Cat. II
DIN-/EN-Norms: DIN EN 388
Skin protection Work clothes made from cotton meets the requirements.
Choice and design of the work clothes to be used depends on the results of the risk
assessment for the specific working environment.
It is necessary to consider the following needs of protection:
- Protection against heat and open fire (clothing must not melt and not be
flammable);
- Protection against contact with chemicals (the fabric shall not absorb particles of
explosives as this would make the fabric more flammable);
- Protection from electrostatic charging;
- Protective clothing used to protect against further hazards (reflective clothing,
weather proof clothing) must comply with the above requirements.
Respiratory protection No personal respiratory protective equipment normally required.

Respiratory protection necessary at: exposure limit overshoot
Suitable respiratory protection apparatus: Half-face mask (DIN EN 140); Type A2

In case the ECETOC TRA worker v2.3 has been used for the calculation of PROCs the following modifications has
been done:
− Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV): The LEV exposure modifying factors for dermal exposure implemented in the
ECETOC TRA v2.3 are not considered;
− Exposure duration: Exposure duration modifying factors implemented in the ECETOC TRA v2.3 for inhalation
exposure were also applied to dermal exposure

− Gloves: Implemented as an additional RMM. The following effectiveness values are assumed:
- Use of suitable gloves: 80%;
- Use of suitable gloves in combination with basic employee training:: 90%;
- Use of suitable gloves in combination with specific activity training: 95%;
- Use of suitable gloves in combination with intensive management supervision controls: 98%.
Risk Control Ratio (RCR) combined: RCR combined is calculated following the recommendation in the ECHA guidance
document “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment – Part E: Risk characterization”
5. Additional good practice advice beyond the REACH CSA
Additional good practices (Operational Conditions and Risk Management Measures) beyond the REACH Chemical
Safety Assessment established within Chemical Industry are also advised and communicated through Safety Data
Sheets. Such as:
- Containment as appropriate;
- Minimise number of staff exposed;
- Segregation of the emitting process;
- Effective contaminant extraction;
- Good standard of general ventilation;
- Minimisation of manual phases;
- Avoidance of contact with contaminated tools and objects;
- Regular cleaning of equipment and work area;
- Management / supervision in place to check that RMMs in place are being used correctly and OCs followed;
- Training staff on good practice;
- Good standard of personal hygiene.
